Mathew Ryan

The Colts felt they left too many big plays on the board in the RPO game last year, and Ryan's accuracy might convert more of those chances.

“Or be as dynamic as we want to be, and really go in a lot of different directions.” “You know, we had some near misses, whether it was accuracy, whether it was timing with routes and accuracy, but we had some big plays that we left out there,” Montgomery said. “We should have an opportunity to go be great at it because of him.” “You’ve got to have a quick mind, make good decisions and then be accurate with the ball, because it’s a short throw, there’s usually going to be a small window and you’ve got to get it out quick,” Reich said. “If you watch some of the throws in his run-action pass game, they translate,” Montgomery said. Under Reich and Montgomery, the coaching staff’s resident expert on the RPO world, the Colts have made them a staple of their offensive diet. “I ran the triple option in high school,” Ryan said with a laugh. “You’re basically giving them a playbook with maybe three to four plays in it per RPO,” running backs coach Scottie Montgomery said. Play in that many systems, and a quarterback learns to be comfortable in almost any scheme, any style of play. In another type, an advantage RPO, the quarterback makes his decision before the snap based on the number of defenders at the point of attack. In one type of RPO, the quarterback reads the actions of a single defender and either hands it off to the running back or pulls the ball out of the back’s arms and fires it quickly to an open receiver. “’I like it, and I’m looking forward to getting a feel for it.’”

NFL experts recently ranked quarterbacks in various categories and Indianapolis Colts quarterback, Matt Ryan, was present in the rankings.

That means the team will benefit from a quarterback that knows how to maneuver in the pocket and find the open man. Ryan received votes for several categories but he made the official top 10 in three of the sections. The Colts are confident they have a quarterback that’s still performing at a quality level and that he will be able to help lead them to victories.
